What a nice place in this park converted to a cafe! Very good drinks, the owner makes his own wine. I went there 3 times, the ambiance is cozy with good music. I tried his new restaurant just in front "Carpets". Amazing food and warm service!

We did not know what to expect, and we can say that 5 stars is not enough. It was so nice that we went twice on the same day. The food is amazing and the atmosphere and service is even better. The house wine and the house chacha were about the best we had on our Georgian trip.

Probably the craziest place I’ve been to, in a good way. Be prepared to be asked your age the first thing you arrive, and a host of other questions even before you place your order ;) Plus, good coffee, nice vibe, location and space. Definitely make a stop here if you’re in the area.

Great location, felt super relaxing and welcoming. Would highly recommend, we visited twice in one day! First visit for coffee and then for lunch. Great food, and amazing host. Live music was a bonus. Definitely worth a visit

Interesting little place. The entrance looks like a narrow building between two diagonal streets, but then you are in an open courtyard. Very tranquil setting. Food was good, but took a bit to get to our table, kids enjoyed the lemonade.

Owner Nodo's family makes wine. Because they sell out every year at their bar, they don't bottle it. I tasted both his white and red. The red is very smooth and the best I have had in Georgia hands down. I would have bought a few bottles had they been for sale. I also had dinner at his newly opened restaurant Carpets next door and ordered chakapuli (lamb stew) per his recommendation. It's a popular Georgian dish and is very tasty. One of his brothers is a sheep farmer and supplies the lamb.

This is an amazing restaurant, we thought it was a building at first, we entered and saw it’s a courtyard/garden, super chill, amazing atmosphere with great music (they play live on the piano after 8!) with great house wine (both red and white) and the food is the best. The owner is a truly great guy as well as all the servers we met, it was truly magical. We came here for lunch and then came back here for dinner too after a full day in Signahi. If we ever come back to this town we will absolutely visit this place again!

Oh, Chikchiki! Where do I even begin? My recent trip to Sighnaghi was utterly transformed by this absolute gem of a restaurant. I was so captivated, I found myself drawn back not once, but twice, and each visit was a symphony of flavors and warmth that I simply must share! Day One: Lunchtime Magic & Staff Savvy! My first encounter was for lunch, and from the moment I stepped in, I felt an incredible vibe. I decided to put my trust entirely in the wonderful staff, asking for their recommendations. And let me tell you, that was the best decision! Every single dish they suggested was not just "good," it was phenomenal. Each bite was a revelation, bursting with fresh, authentic flavors that left me utterly delighted and already planning my next visit. The passion and knowledge of the team truly shone through, making the experience unforgettable. Day Two: Breakfast Dreams Come True! After such an incredible lunch, I simply couldn't leave Sighnaghi without experiencing Chikchiki's breakfast. The anticipation was high, and they did not disappoint! I indulged in their vegetable omelette, a fluffy, flavorful masterpiece; the avocado sandwich, which was perfectly fresh and satisfying; and a divine matcha latte that was pure comfort in a cup. Seriously, each item was beyond "too good" – it was perfection! A Sanctuary for Vegans & Vegetarians! And for all my fellow plant-based foodies out there, listen up: if you are vegan or vegetarian, Chikchiki is your culinary haven in Sighnaghi! They don't just offer options; they craft dishes with care, creativity, and incredible taste. This is, without a doubt, the best place you could possibly go. My Heart Belongs to Chikchiki! Chikchiki isn't just a restaurant; it's an experience. It's where incredible food meets genuine hospitality, leaving you with a full belly and an even fuller heart. To the owners and the entire Chikchiki team, you have created something truly special. Thank you for the unforgettable meals and the sheer joy you bring to your customers. Do yourself a favor and visit Chikchiki – your taste buds (and your soul) will thank you!
